About Health Share of Oregon
Health Share of Oregon’s recent grantmaking centers on community capacity building for health-related social needs, with a single 2025 portfolio that includes large awards to Clackamas County Health Centers at $1,344,306, Home Forward at $1,054,079, and Washington County Department of Housing Services at $1,010,165. The pattern points to a payer- and systems-oriented funder working through local health, housing, and care-coordination organizations rather than individuals. Its grants also reach county health departments, housing providers, and nonprofit partners that connect people to primary care, behavioral health, transportation, food, and housing support. The largest awards in the file are paired with a broad set of mid-sized grants, suggesting an approach built around strengthening service networks across Oregon communities. Among the named recipients are Multnomah County Health Department, Project Access Now, and 211info, each funded through the same health-related social needs framework. The foundation’s stated orientation toward health equity fits the grant list, which emphasizes coordinated care and community partnerships over isolated program funding.
What Health Share of Oregon Funds
Housing is a major part of the foundation’s portfolio. In 2025, Health Share of Oregon gave $1,054,079 to Home Forward for community capacity building funds for health-related social needs, and $1,010,165 to Washington County Department of Housing Services for the same purpose. Those awards sit alongside grants to Portland Homeless Family Solutions and Central City Concern Inc., showing that housing stability is treated as part of health access. The foundation also funds access points that help people navigate services. It gave $750,000 to 211info and $750,000 to Project Access Now, both in Portland, again under community capacity building funds for health-related social needs. Behavioral health and culturally specific support also appear in the list through Sequoia Mental Health Inc, Latino Network, and the Native American Rehabilitation Association of the Northwest Inc.
How Health Share of Oregon Gives
The grant list shows a wide spread in size, from seven-figure awards down to $100,000 grants among the recent entries. The 2025 file suggests a portfolio built around substantial operating-style support for organizations that deliver or coordinate services. Recipients include county agencies, health centers, housing providers, and community organizations, which points to systems-of-care support rather than one-off project funding. The recent grants table does not show individual applicants; it shows a consistent funding relationship centered on health-related social needs. Health Share of Oregon is a public charity, not a private foundation, and it does not fund individuals.
